"F" is for Friends Who Do Stuff Together...

I love my apartment and everything to do with it.  My landlords are amazing, the location is great, and the place itself is brand spanking new!  There's just one problem.  I'm all alone.  Don't read too far into that!  Jax still enjoys her personal space.  lol  While I'm not ready for a room mate of ANY kind, I would like a pet.  It's time for Jax to get a little critter companionship.  I would like a little buddy to keep me company at home and smother me with unconditional love.

One thing you guys don't know about me is that I'm the queen of critters.  No, I did not dub myself with that title.  I earned it years ago.  You name the creature and at one point or another, I had one.   I've had fish, fire bellied toads, pac man frogs, scorpions, a one eyed mouse, and a king snake.  The list doesn't end there.  Those were just a few of my little babies.

This is  Cob.  He's an albino corn snake.  He was a lovely pet that I loved to play around with.  He was my third snake and died an early death.  My old land lord decided to exterminate without my knowledge one day while I was at work.  And you can add killing an innocent animal to the list of reasons why I moved out!

This is Beautiful.  Although I named him Beautiful, my dad would only call him Ralph!  He is an Iguana.  He was a gift from my ex-b/f, TheGreek.  This little guy grew up way to fast.  After a year and a half he hit about 4-1/2 feet long with a tail.  I was forced to give him up for adoption to a great reptile lover.  This picture was taken after he was adopted.  At least my baby looks happy and I get to see him from time to time :(

This is Deraj.  Jared spelled backwards after the beautiful Jared Padalecki.  He is a Hedgehog.  This little guy was so much fun!!  Until he pricked you...

This is Mada.  Adam spelt backwards for Adam Lambert.  He was also a Hedgehog.  This is Deraj's brother.  Tell me he isn't the most adorable thing you've ever seen!!  I loved this little guy to death.  Plus, he never pricked me.  Ever...

This is Mac N. Cheese.  I just called him Mac.  He was a gecko.  I had him longer than any other pet.  I took him everywhere with me!  This little guy went for visits to nanny's house and even to my dad's shop to bask outside in the sun.  During my surgery, Madre babysat him for 3 months until I was well enough to take care of him again.  He really was my baby.

And who could forget my two little wiener pooches??  On the left is Sir Reginald Winston and on the right is Sir Phillip Bluda.  They are Dachshunds.  They have been in my family forever.  Even though they no longer live with me, they will always be my boys.

So now that you're a little more familiar with my long list of pets, I have no idea who to bring into my new home.  Sometimes I feel like adopting the same type of animal is like replacing the ones I had prior. I mean, how could I get another gecko after having the best one in the world??  I'm going to have to really think about this, but in a few months, I hope to have a new room mate.  

What pets do you spoil rotten??
